Review of The Astronaut's Wife (1999) by Sabrina A — 14 Aug 2009

I wasn't really wanting to see "The Astronaut's Wife," but my mom told me that it was good and that I should watch it. There wasn't anything else on, so I watched it. It turned out to be real disappointment in my opinion. Jillian (Charlize Theron) is the wife of an astronaut, Spencer (Johnny Depp). He almost gets killed after being trapped in space for two minutes. Jillian begins to worry when Spencer comes back and starts acting real strange.

"The Astronaut's Wife" took an original idea and never really made the best of it. For the first hour of the movie, I thought it was boring, but it kept me interested enough to want to see what was going to happen. The last 30 minutes of the movie was the only part of the movie that was pretty good. "The Astronaut's Wife" had good acting, but the script and plot just weren't what they could've been. I don't really recommend getting the movie if you ask me, but some people really like it, so you might. NOTE: That was my Amazon review from the year 2000.
